Chapter 916 - Not letting you off
GDK 916: Not letting you off
All along, Han Shuo had been denying his feelings for Donna, trying not to increase the size of his harem. But in the depths of his heart, just as Donna said, he had considered her as his woman and his actions reflected his subconscious mind.
On that day, with Donna’s interrogation, Han Shuo was forced to confront his true feelings. When Han Shuo observed that his realm state was destabilizing, he realized just how deeply he felt for Donna and that he must stop burying his feelings.
Although Donna was confrontational and it seemed as though she was going to kill Han Shuo, all her anger vanished when she was in Han Shuo’s embrace. Every last bit of pain and hatred were erased off her mind.
The weeping Donna embraced Han Shuo tightly as though she wanted to squeeze herself into Han Shuo’s body.
Han Shuo felt sympathetic. He stood silently and let Donna cry on his chest while gently caressing her soft, long hair.
As the grief and grievances that had been accumulated over the past many years went away with her tears, her heart gradually calmed down. For all these years, having to constantly move around and hide with her family, there had not been a day that she felt at peace. But in Han Shuo’s broad chest, she felt safe and a sense of tranquility.
<i>How I wish I could lean on his chest for eternity… </i> thought Donna who had put on a faint, blissful smile after she stopped weeping. Happiness had displaced all the sorrow in her heart.
After a long, long while, after having vented her feelings, she moved away from Han Shuo’s chest somewhat embarrassedly. With her wet eyes, she saw that Han Shuo seemed rather nervous and somewhat at a loss. She thought that the Han Shuo now was very adorable. There wasn’t a hint of his usual proud and lofty demeanor showing on his foolish face.
“Hehe!” Donna, whose cheeks were still wet, couldn’t help but laughed. She reached out with her hand and gently pinched Han Shuo’s face, “Why would you make this silly face? You make it look like I had forced you to confess!”
“He left, he’s returning to the Fringe.” Donna had done her best to conceal the happiness on her face but she could not conceal it in her voice. Anyone could observe that her demeanor had transformed.
“Oh, ok.” Felder nodded before he glanced at the members of his family clan and instructed, “Why are you all still standing? Get moving!”
Dolores and the others hastily replied affirmatively and continued with the journey. But they would secretly peek at Donna and gossip about her in their minds.
Felder and Donna were traveling at the very front of the company. After they had pulled some distance ahead of the others, Felder softly said, “Donna, I will do nothing about the matter between you and him. But, as always, try to avoid troubles for our family.”
Donna stared blankly for a moment before she puzzlingly asked, “Father, you, you won’t make me break up with him?”
Felder lightly sighed before he replied, “Could I?”
“Father, actually I… “ Donna hastily tried to explain that she understood the position of her family clan as Han Shuo and the Lavers could still be considered enemies.
Felder raised a hand and interrupted Donna, “There’s no need for explanation, this is all my fault, I had failed you. If I had listened to you and at least met him the day he first visited our Lavers Residence, perhaps none of those things would have happened. Sigh, it was with my arrogance and stubbornness that I had pushed the House of Lavers into the abyss. I had even nearly sacrificed you to that good-for-nothing son of Larikson… “
“Father, why don’t you expel me from the Lavers? Then I cannot bring the family clan any troubles,” suggested Donna.
Felder shook his head resolutely and replied, “No, it is me who is in the wrong. Why would I punish you for my mistakes? Alright, that’s enough, don’t overthink. Although I do not know why, I suspect that the Darkness and Death Overgods want him to live. With that, the thing between you and him shouldn’t be an issue.”
“Father, do you mean, you approve of our relationship?” Donna was so elated that her voice trembled slightly.
Felder nodded slowly, sighed, and lamented, “I had not treated you fairly and had made you suffer too much for our family. Though I may have been a good patriarch, I had not been a good father. This is the least I could do to make it up for you.”
“Thank you, Father! Thank you!” Donna could not be happier. She thought that after Han Shuo killed Avery, Felder’s brother, the grudges between Han Shuo and her family clan will never be resolved. But unexpectedly, Felder would let go of the offense and approve of her relationship with Han Shuo. With those words of Felder’s, there were no longer any knots in her heart.
